Even without it being a kids movie, and all the reasons that can create a divide in terms of critic and audience scoring: most people fundamentally do not understand that a measure of your enjoyment of a thing and a measure of it’s quality are not the same thing, or even intrinsically linked.

2 guaranteed golden eggs:
1 at the chicken landing on the lake shore (there to normally be sold for a merchant request)
1 in the throne room (same as that portrait), in the locked puzzle box

Haven’t finished the campaign yet, but there’s been like 1 or 2 scenes where Ada’s line felt off. However I couldn’t adequately tell you if it was due to the actor’s delivery, or a problem with the recording/mixing making it feel out of place. Things that lie at the feet of devs to ensure turn out right, not the VA.

Right? I don’t really get the “catch” of this question, even the ones people had hefty complaints about i.e. “FF13 is just hallways” are still RPGs.

Yes, and? The article says the M rating in Australia doesn’t actually restrict the sale of the game, that only occurs with MA15+. So an otherwise clearly childish game having that M rating on the cover would simply act as a shocker to an otherwise unaware parent, getting them to look at the detailed reason why it has…

Maybe next time leave out the part where you could get the government to block the acquisition? Just stick to the “we can help convince them” half of that. Seriously what kind of moron approaches their business partner that way? If I was Acti-Blizz I’d take it as a threat to, you just explicitly laid out the idea that…

Step 1: Save scum through Hardcore mode to respect your own time instead of replaying the game when one whiffed shot results in a death 8 chapters in.

Won’t be long before the speedrun community figures out how to land this shot with the starting handgun first shot every time. Too much of a time savings to NOT incorporate it, as soon as 1 person manages to land the shot they’ll jump ahead of anyone not doing the same, so they’ll have to iron it down to a reliable…

Some of the most important stuff I saw in the patch notes was tucked away in Bug Fixes. Namely things like the Roar Medallion talisman (that most people probably forgot was a thing) now properly working on breath incantations like the description always implied it should.

You’re making this sound like it’s some secluded secretive resort for the elite, but the only thing exclusive about Deer Valley is that they only allow skis, no boards etc.

If they had to pivot away from Seinfeld parody for whatever reason, they should have made it into a parody of another sitcom. Just keep shifting which setting and cast is being awkwardly AI-generated, bouncing around through different eras of TV.

What you’re missing here is that advertisers want their garbage seen by as many people as possible, even if that includes kids. And they also don’t want to have to look into this closely or care very much when they go to run an ad here; they don’t want to micromanage it, they just want to assume it will run alongside…

Neomuna, not Noumena.

1 is nostalgia bait with likely little to no re-playability. People are gonna play it for now, eventually like the majority of games it’ll have little to no streams unless a big name randomly decides to stream it and spikes viewership for a moment. That’s pretty normal.

It’s a single player game, so whoever was going to play it has done so and moved on. Pretty easy to understand.

Borrowed from the Japanese “Idol” culture, where stars are expected to only work as an idol for a certain number of years or up to a certain age, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_idol#Retirement

Other than it being bad business centered solely on the dipshit ideology of terminally online fanboys? Yeah technically nothing else stopping them.

Big pile of assumptions there huh? First, I don’t care about Dragon Age. I never played Origins, or 2. I played DAI once, and have retained basically nothing about it.

Not sure why you’re saying fans like it’s ironic. Yes, if the sequel to a series they’ve been waiting on for years comes out and is a fundamentally different type of game, many of them will be disappointed. That’s not new or hard to understand.

Seriously, go find me a ride that DOESN’T have specific height, weight, etc. requirements to account for safety and just the simple fact of how the thing was designed.
